Coolant problem
Hello everybody, I recently purchased a coolant tank off eBay from a 98 coupe. My 97 coolant tank broke off where the little nipple was which was cause a steady leak. Well after I replaced everything and my coolant with the right amount of dex-cool with water. Its been two days since the repair and I still keep getting a low coolant on my DIC. Can somebody please help me?

1. Check the position (angle) of the tank as you have installed it. There is some lattitude in adjusting it's position to ensure it is actually level and not at an angle. This (light coming on) can be aggravated by the angle the car is parked in somewhat (downhill/sideways angle)
2. Fill the tank more. Typically I fill it to just immediately below the "grid" you see when the cap is removed. Don't get too hung up on the "Full" marks on the side. Any true excess will eventually get "burped" out by the car itself during operation.
